Celestron NexStar 102SLT Computerised Telescope

The Celestron NexStar 102SLT Computerised Telescope is an excellent choice of astronomical telescope that can be effectively used for terrestrial observations as well.

This telescope is suitable for experienced astronomers and also for newcomers. It has a computer database of 4000 or more celestial objects that the telescope will point towards once the selected object is entered with the hand control.

The SkyAlign feature makes telescope alignment easy as it only needs the user to enter the time and date details and then to point the telescope towards three bright images in the sky for it to establish its own location and therefore be able to work out where any celestial object in the database is.

  • Compatible with 2-inch eyepieces
  • High-quality 102-mm short tube-style refractor
  • Fully computerised Altazimuth mount
  • StarPointer Finderscope helps with alignment and accurate location of celestial objects

  • Database allows telescope to locate 4000+ celestial objects
  • SkyAlign allows alignment on any three bright celestial objects in fast, easy alignment process
  • Flash-upgradeable hand control software and motor control units for downloading product updates via Internet
